april's dream
the stream's breath tastes of the wood's perfume,
filled are the woods with foam:
and the sea like a sheet 'neath the summer noon,
with the languorous swerve runs home.
the beat of a pulse the warm sun stirs
in the air, the sea and stream,
beckons the heart-and the soul allures
forth, into april's dream.
by william stanley braithwaite (1878-1962)

we brought wash's new scratching post from adam out to korrina today (it had been in the back of the car from last sunday) along with a few of her christmas gifts that had been too bulky to take home on the train (a large pasta server bowl and olive oil) . .
and then went to dawa's for lunch. greg had chana gwaramari (spiced black chick peas, sunny side up eggs, tomato achar and chili oil) and korrina and i shared phaper ko roti (buckwheat roti with garlic timur and green chili yogurt sauce) and baked eggplant with chili yogurt sauce and watercress. all so delicious! also, i had a glass of their homemade kombucha (made with magnolia oolong tea) and korrina had their strawberry lemonade.
it was another beautiful spring day with warm sunshine and a cool breeze.
heading home across the williamsburg bridge. k rode with us and then took the path train to her friends' get together in jersey.
several stuffed creatures hanging out along the bridge parapet.
